Separation from the Darkness Outside and Inside

We’re in the Time of Separation, but we often forget the most important part of what we’re separating from. It isn’t in the last analysis a separation from other people. It’s a separation from the tendencies within ourselves that are holding us back.

According to the sources we follow, the rising energies are triggering incomplete issues to bubble up to the surface, hopefully to be cleared once and for all. Says Archangel Michael through Ronna Herman:

“There is an intense polarization building between the various factions, not just in isolated places around the world, but in every country, involving every race, culture, religion and political affiliation. We have told you that the chasm between the Light and the shadow lands is widening, and it is very apparent from both a lofty and earthly viewpoint.

“We see clearly the areas that are being bathed in the Living Light, thanks to you, the faithful Sentinels of Light. We also see the swirling whirlwinds of negativity and chaos building in a multitude of countries, provinces, cities, towns, neighborhoods and even among families around the world.” (1)

Emmanuel also tells us that the separation is a natural part of the Ascension process:

“Division has started at third-dimensional level, and the groups of frequencies present in your plane of existence are being regrouped. From now on, you will be seeing many signs of division and regrouping manifesting in your reality.

“Companies will split, friends will stop seeing each other, families will separate, groups will be divided, etc. And at the same time you will be witnessing the absolute opposite; you will join new groups, you will feel closer than ever to your loved ones, family and friends.

“This change is neither positive nor negative. It is existential. This is a natural step in the mass-ascension process.” (2)

The ascended master Hilarion advises us that from now on all our incompletions, resentments and other stuck places will start to manifest so that we can release them and create space for Light to fill. (I certainly hope that’s what’s happening for me.)

“Many issues and long unresolved problems are coming up for review, resolution and release. This is going to continue occurring as the days go by for it is necessary that all energies that are not of the highest Light be resolved in order to let more Light in. It is a time of much Human drama as interpersonal relationships make adjustments along with all the body adjustments.

“Each of you is helping by trying to be mirrors for each other so that this can occur, so that all core issues can finally be released once and for all.” (3)

Back in 2008, the Hathors warned us that, during this Time of Separation, we would see a tug of war in which fear, paranoia, and irrational behaviors might temporarily predominate. Our sources have known this time would come for many years. And it has come.

“It shall be increasingly difficult to perpetuate the old world in the same ways it has been perpetuated. And by this we mean both the old world of your civilization and the old world of your own personal lives. As the wave of spiritual evolution accelerates, those who insist upon living in the old paradigms will find it increasingly difficult.

“Fear and paranoia will be the tone of the day, from the minutest aspects of personal life to international relations. This tug of war between that which wishes to remain locked in place, tugging against those forces that wish to open the world to new possibilities shall indeed become a surrealistic experience.

“The evolutionary pressures upon individuals and society are extraordinary, and those individuals who are less centered (psychologically imbalanced) may experience an increase in irrational behaviors. Many countries around the world are already seeing a rise in irrational acts and unusual crimes.” (4)

Archangel Gabriel tells us that inner shifts are what’s required.

“In order to create this miraculous new world, it requires inner shifts of consciousness and healing of all that is not in harmony with this higher energy frequency. The need for a shift can be seen in every area of the world around you as the old ways destabilize, crumble and fall away.” (5)

The Pleiadian High Council, speaking through Lauren Gorgo, also reminds us that the most important separation will occur in consciousness.

“The prophesied time for the separation of realities has been talked about in various spiritual circles and communities of new thought, however, is mostly misunderstood. The separation of worlds as you will come to experience, is not a physical separation, but a separation in consciousness.

“This will however lead to a seeming segregation of sorts, in that the communities of like mind will begin to come together, rather they will gravitate toward one another.

“As this happens, those who are operating on the new timeline, that of the emanations from the great central sun, will begin to step fully into their ascended or Christed consciousness.” (6)

The much deeper meaning of darkness is not that which we see in Islamophobes or Facebook haters. It is the darkness within ourselves. If we remember that darkness exists inside and outside us, then we can extend SaLuSa’s meaning when he says:

“The dark are losing their ability to prevent you from discovering your true Self, and instead of separating you from your Light, will find that it is you who separate from them. (7)

We are separating from the dark around us but from the darkness within ourselves as well.

Demagoguery exists on the right and left. Demagoguery exists inside us. But demagoguery does not exist in the center that Buddha called “the Middle Way.” It does not exist in the quiet void that Lao Tzu called “the Great Tao.” It does not exist in the windless place where Krishna said the Light could be seen. And it does not exist for the individual whom Jesus described as caring naught for the morrow but seeking instead God and His righteousness; in other words, the individual in whom worldly desires had died.

It doesn’t matter a tad to me whether others believe in celestials, masters, and galactics or not. These are the messages that have guided us to this place and that will help us find our way home. Let others follow their own guidance, as free will dictates.

Remaining in this central place and turning aside from intolerance and hate is the work of the shift that the whole planet is experiencing right now. Let those who wish to harm their neighbor find a place among others of their kind. We are separating from those impulses in ourselves and from those who will not wean themselves from this style of living.
